Winter wonderland

We woke up to 3 to 4 cms of heavy wet snow this morning. K's off to Quebec, the driving for me wasn't too bad, I guess leaving that early in the morning has its advantages, like less traffic. He text messaged me to say 'Whatsup?' and that he was bored on the bus. It's really beautiful outside, all those trees with icy branches. L's school just cancelled all activities past 4.30pm as more snow is on the way tonight and every day until Monday. I made it to my step class today although after 40 minutes of shovelling I probably didn't need to. Still, I felt good after, but my blood pressure was up. It must be that Chinese takeout food we've been eating for a few days. It's sooo good, but I think it's because of those little bacon bits I see in the noodle dishes and the sticky rice.

L and I shovelled tonight for an hour and a half. The snow was lighter, but there was lots of it and it's still coming down. It wasn't that cold and a few of the neighbours were out. It's ironic that we have a large snowblower in the garage that I don't know how to use, that we hardly ever use. Anyway, I felt great afterward, the picture of health. We'll have to do more in the morning especially after the snow plough comes through.
